Pan Asia Bank, has launched a special credit card for government pensioners in partnership with Master Card.

The new offering - ‘Sammana Credit Card’ - is packed with attractive discounts and promotions from Sri Lanka’s leading merchants.

The new loyalty credit card for the government pensioner segment reflects the bank’s determination to add value to customer experience and support them to maintain a good lifestyle, enjoying many benefits. Pan Asia Bank was the first bank to introduce an exclusive product to benefit government pensioners a decade ago. This product has supported the financial wellbeing of its pensioner customers during the pandemic and the economic crisis. The Sammana Pension Loan Scheme enables a pensioner to receive financial assistance without the need for guarantors, thus empowering pensioners with new hope and dignity. Director/CEO Pan Asia Bank, Naleen Edirisinghe said: “In an era where retirees are largely being considered as a liability by society and overlooked by the financial sector, Pan Asia Bank has come forward to offer Sammana loan scheme as part of its endeavour to extend innovative financial products and cater to social segments that could contribute positively towards the country’s economic development. Taking this commitment further, this newly launched credit card will further assist this segment to enjoy a good lifestyle through many benefits.”
